Montecristo 1935 Anniversary Nicaragua No. 2 Pack of 10 Cigars | Selected by Cigar Aficionado 2021 #2 Cigar of the Year – Rated 95
Created to honor 85 years of Montecristo’s legacy, the 1935 Anniversary Nicaragua No. 2 stands as a perfect example of craftsmanship meeting tradition. Debuting in 2020, this cigar was the product of a dream team collaboration: Rafael Nodal, the Grupo de Maestros, and blending master AJ Fernandez. Rolled at the San Lotano Factory in Nicaragua, it’s a puro through and through—wrapper, binder, and filler all harvested from Fernandez’s family estates.
Montecristo has long been associated with Dominican blends, but this release boldly showcased the richness of Nicaraguan tobacco. The payoff was immediate: the No. 2 was named #2 Cigar of the Year in 2021 by Cigar Aficionado and earned an outstanding 95 rating.
The presentation is every bit as refined as the blend itself. The cigar’s dark, oily wrapper is perfectly box-pressed and tapers elegantly to its torpedo head. The flavor journey begins with signature Nicaraguan spice, quickly followed by notes of black pepper, cinnamon, and caramel sweetness. A foundation of wood and earth anchors the smoke, while roasted coffee and a hint of floral complexity appear in the background. The torpedo shape intensifies these flavors, ensuring a concentrated and satisfying draw from start to finish.
Medium-full in strength and brimming with character, the Montecristo 1935 Anniversary Nicaragua No. 2 is made for moments of reflection and celebration. Pair it with bold espresso, dark rum, or vintage port to heighten the experience, and discover why this cigar is considered one of Montecristo’s finest modern masterpieces.
